Taste in RDA (Veritas) versus EGO style Aspire BDC atty

[Hawaii]

Is it me that the juices taste better in the Aspire BDC's at about 3.8 on a spinner battery? I have the Veritas and it's loaded with Japanese cotton with 28G kanthol. Vapes great but for sweeter juices, I find that it's more muted on it. Tell me it's the wick. I am using a 50\50 blend. I don't know what wicking material the Aspire BDC's use in their coils but I wish I could replicate the same clean and sweeter taste. Anybody have noticed the same?

China attys all wick with silica - what quality of silica is anyone's guess. Buying silica from a known China vendor might get you close.
Every wicking material has properties that can brighten or subdue aspects of a juice/blend. I find (for example) that silica will dull the chocolate in a chocolate mint while cotton or rayon will heighten it... but dull the sweetness. All very subjective of course... so what I find meets my needs may not work for you.

If you want to "duplicate" a stock China atty flavor quality in a RDA... silica would be the place to start - and a similar net resistance.

If you're building single coil on the Veritas... they perform much better with dual verticals at .4Ω-.8Ω resistances. See my post on the easy way to build single wire, dual coils, for the Veritas and similar RBAs.

I see. Yeah, I really don't like this nutty muted taste in this fruity blend. I'll try silica. Good Idea.

You don't provide resistance values, and I can't tell what the hell battery mod (a mech?) you have attached to the Veritas... so that's about all I can offer. Adjusting current and resistance up or down might provide some insights as well.

Have fun sorting it out. ;-)

I have a Provari Mini with 28G Kanthal @ 1.5 with an AW IMR 18350 battery. Mini don't allow me to run below 1.o ohm which I think maybe is ok because those BDC's fire high too. If I could get the same exact taste, I would be freakin super happy

Kind of off topic but trying putting the new BVC coils in your Nautilus. You can thank me later

Have the Nautilus and the Mini. Bottom Vertical Coils works good. Trying to drip and retain the great taste that you get from a BDC. Night and day fellas...

Matters on your build. I find that a single horizontal coil at 1.3 ohms makes a ton of flavor on my Veritas while a single macro coil on 24g @ .5 ohms pumping 35 watts is best for me. Pretty much haven't found any atty that can produce flavor like a Veritas, when setup right.

I've tried 1.5-1.9 ohms @ 2.9 volts to 6 volts with Japanese cotton, organic cotton vertical build and still these juices are not the same as vaping it in a BDC. Generally speaking, no matter what I try, this nutty flavor still is present making any juice muted and nutty. What wick are you using?

Well I've solved the problem folks...
